…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Dastra MCP to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Dastra to Windsurf and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Map out processing activities with Windsurf
Your Dastra workspace mapping happens automatically when Cascade runs `list_workspaces`. You tell the agent to audit your system, and it follows up with `list_processings` to see exactly what data flows through your app. Finding missing records takes zero effort. If your code handles new user data, Cascade spots the gap and drafts the required documentation. It checks `list_datasets` to confirm everything matches your actual database schemas.
Automate Data Subject Requests
Creating a Dastra ticket via `create_dsr` keeps you focused on your code. Handling a user deletion request usually means switching to a browser. Now you just ask your IDE to log the initial ticket while you keep working. Multi-step workflows run in the background. Cascade pulls the ticket details using `get_dsr`, modifies the status with `update_dsr`, and finally calls `archive_dsr` once your database scrub finishes.
Dastra MCP Server breach reporting
Logging an incident with `create_breach` takes seconds. When you spot a leak in your logs, your agent immediately documents it in Dastra. You avoid wasting time logging into a separate compliance portal. Reviewing past incidents is just as fast. The agent uses `list_breaches` to pull historical context, helping you patch vulnerabilities based on what failed last time. It tags everything neatly using `list_tags`.
